        Hi @Pricebeat will that count as Indian credit card? cause I've got the email that I need to use India issued credit card

          Are you currently paying using Apple India gift cards? or did you sign up using VPN on youtube direct?

          These don't count as India issued cards.

          • NTS83 on 24/11/2024 - 10:47

            @Pricebeat: Thanks, I'm using the VPN on youtube direct, they gave me the notice to change my payment by 5th of December, so I'm waiting to see what will happen :)

            • Pricebeat on 24/11/2024 - 10:48

              @NTS83: Yep, all that is coming to an end sooner or later. Using Apple gift cards is the way for now.

      I use my Australian account. Only reason you would set up new account is, if you want to keep your primary account separate from these activities.

        I've started doing more & more splitting, over the last few years. Billions of us being naive, with how much we merge ALL of our activities into one "free" email address that's become the key to our online identity.

        Forget the tinfoil stuff, just the fact if that email goes wonky, out life gets instantly REAL complicated.

          I've enjoyed moving to alias email addresses using fastmail. While it isn't a free option I can see exactly what companies are selling my data and easily nuke any compromised email alias to avoid spam.

          Email segregation is the only way forward as far as I'm concerned. I've got over a dozen email accounts, each with a specific intent or purpose for them. While it's not as convenient as using the same email, if anything does go wrong, nothing else is impacted.

          • WhyAmICommenting on 24/11/2024 - 14:46

            @KangaDrew: Where are some of these from?

            I have Gmail, Hotmail and a personal one I keep from an isp.

            Or are they multiple Gmails etc?

            • KangaDrew on 24/11/2024 - 15:58
              +1

              @WhyAmICommenting: Gmail, Apple and Firefox Relay have the ability to use an alias (or mask) over your primary email address. I just run everything through Outlook though. So they're dedicated email addresses all added to my Outlook app and I can view all emails at any time without needing to go and log into other apps or via a browser. They're a mix of Live, Hotmail and Outlook domains. Keeping them separate from one another also means there's no link between them whereas an alias is still linked to the primary email address.

        • Tokingit on 28/11/2024 - 00:17

          A little known but far easier method to use your single Gmail address for multiple subs etc is simply by adding +(and a new number for a new subscription). So if your email was [email protected] to subscribe to something your already subscribed to you can sign up as [email protected] and it will work as a new sub. email will get sent to your jack email and you can do it limitless jack+2 etc

          • Ulysses31 on 28/11/2024 - 19:58

            @Tokingit: I think it's known by a lot of people. But it's still google. The more I detach from them & similar, the more they streamline and/or insist on using them for every possible aspect of or life.

            Having been hacked, and also have young kids, was the accelerant for us

    If you encounter errors while creating an India Apple ID, try creating the india account on https://music.apple.com/. Click on the red "Sign In" button in the top right corner.

    • seniordoc on 24/11/2024 - 16:46

      I have difficulty in getting apple id for India. After enter all the information, it said it could be do it now.
      Then I went to music.apple.com, a bit better. But when I gave answers to 3 security questions, it said the data could not be saved?
      IF I log out and log in again, password is OK but then it goes to 3 security questions, and then failed after I gave it the answer.
      What did I miss and how to correct it now?
      Should need to factory reset my iphone (old iphone6) to try again?
      not even try the Amazon apple gift card.
      I can use PIA VPN on my PC and iphone.

      Thank you.

Tried to redeem into my google play account, after entering the code I get error message that this code can be applied only from India.

        I'm looking at it a bit differently, in addition to being cheaper it may also be a solution for me.

        I, quite happily, do not own any apple device and all these recent deals seem to require it.
